MS Security Advisory Notification (February 13, 2018)

Microsoft Security Advisory ADV180002 Updated on February 13

– Title: Guidance to mitigate speculative execution side-channel
vulnerabilities
– https:https://portal.msrc.microsoft.com/en-US/security-guidance/
advisory/ADV180002
– Reason for Revision: Microsoft has released security updates to
provide additional protections for the 32-bit (x86) versions of
Windows 10 as follows: 4074596 for Windows 10, 4074591 for Windows
10 Version 1511, 4074590 for Windows 10 Version 1607, and 4074592
for Windows 10 Version 1703. Microsoft recommends that customers
running 32-bit systems install the applicable update as soon as
possible. Microsoft continues to work to provide 32-bit (x86)
protections for other supported Windows versions but does not
have a release schedule at this time. These update will be
included in subsequent updates, and do not apply to x64
(64-bit) systems. Added a section under Advisory Details to
announce that Microsoft has released mitigations for Windows
Holographic to Microsoft HoloLens customers that are provided
automatically as part of the February 2018 Windows Security
Update to Windows 10 Version 1607 for HoloLens. HoloLens
customers do not need to take any additional action to update
their device firmware. Added FAQ#12 and FAQ#13 to provide
further information for installing the February 2018
security updates.
